Hello Deepa,

As a musician, I found this article interesting. If you want to hear the banjolele, it’s played at the and of the last DVD in the 5 DVD boxed set of the Story of the Beatles (excellent for those who want to know a little about the Beatles). The last scene is in black-and-white, featuring a guy performing on stage. It represents George Harrison’s father, who played the instrument during his short career as a music-hall type musician.

Have a good day....

Hello Deepa,

Beatle George Harrison’s father (or was it John Lennon’s, I’m not sure) played this instrument, and you can hear it at the end of the 5DVD boxed st ”The Story of The Beatles”; (The scene, filmed in B/W, represents Harrison’s (or Lennon’s) father, a music-hall performer).

Interesting history this unusual instrument has. Had read that George Harrison, who had bought it wanted to gift it back to the Formby family, but they instead bought it from him.
The donor has a big heart indeed.

Hey Micheal, nice to know that you are interested in such posts. Thanks for letting us know about where can we precisely hear the banjolele. You seem to know a lot about it :)
